Thanks for the feedback, will work on making this more transparent so future users do not have this experience.

I did want to call out that headroom is not based on RTK - it includes RTK sure, but headroom cli has a lot more going on under the hood. For more see https://github.com/chopratejas/headroom

I installed Headroom to give it a try, quickly decided to uninstall when I realized how invasive it is and requires a subscription. Spent the next few hours having issues with CC where it was asking for permission on every command. It was using absolute paths for all commands - turns out it was running into `zsh: command not found: rtk`. To fully uninstall I had to:

- Remove hook from `~/.claude/settings.local.json

- rm -rf ~/.headroom

- rm ~/.claude/hooks/headroom-rtk-rewrite.sh

- launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/Headroom.plist

- rm ~/Library/LaunchAgents/Headroom.plist

- rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/com.extraheadroom.headroom*

- rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/com.extraheadroom.headroom

Thanks for sharing your experiences. We incorporated changes in the latest version to improve this:

1. On install we explain what Headroom installs 2. We added an uninstall feature that removes all of this for you 3. On quit of the app, we immediately remove all items that may intervene with normal Claude Code behavior
